7 Unwearied they forward go, Marching from strength to strength, Till all in Zion do appear Before the Lord at length.
7 Unwearied they forward go, Marching from strength to strength, Till all in Sion do appear Before the Lord at length.
8 Lord God of Hosts, my prayer hear, O Jacob's God give ear:
9 O God, our shield, look on the face Of thine anointed dear.
10 Because one day within thy house Is better to abide, Than in another place to stay A thousand days beside. Much rather would I keep a door In the house of my God, Than in the tents of wickedness To take up mine abode.
